BBC World Service - Outlook, A Family Affair: Remembering my dancing parents, Fosse and Verdon

Nicole Fosse’s life wasn't always as smooth as her parents’ celebrated choreography

Two superstars of dance, Bob Fosse and Gwen Verdon, revolutionised the modern musical. But Nicole Fosse recalls how life wasn't always as smooth as her parents' choreography.

Nicole Fosse is the daughter of two American dance superstars – Bob Fosse and Gwen Verdon. Their legendary collaboration led to huge stage and screen successes like Chicago and Cabaret, and the reinvention of the modern musical. As one of the most influential couples in show business, the Fosse-Verdon relationship was remarkable but, as Nicole recalls, life wasn’t always as smooth as her parents’ celebrated choreography. (First broadcast in August 2020)
